THU 4.21

Russell Chudnofsky’s Medicine Chest @ Atwood’s Tavern

Russell Chudnofsky is probably not a name that you recognize, unless you’re a musician or lover of music. He’s played with a who’s who list of musicians and toured all around the world with them and opening for them with his band, Medicine Chest. In his latest incarnation of that band, and as part of series of local shows he’s doing with a long list of local musicians, he’ll be joined onstage by Dinty Child, Jenee Halstead, and Scott Janovitz. Come out and support a great lineup at a great venue for great music. It’s a win-win-win.

Atwood’s Tavern. 877 Cambridge St., Cambridge. 10pm/21+/$7. atwoodstavern.com

 


FRI 4.22

Rock & Roll Rumble Finals @ ONCE Ballroom

It all comes down to the final night. The bands have gone through the usual donnybrook of preliminary nights, and now it’s just the three bands still standing and one hell of a guest encore from none other than Scissorfight! The bearded brood are older and wiser but no less the trashy and din-filled men of rock that put lumber-core on the map. Worshipper, Weakened Friend, and usLights will be going for glory leading up to the final bout of musical mayhem so show up early and drink heavily, throwing your voice and vote behind the eventual 2016 Rumble Winner.

ONCE Ballroom. 156 Highland Ave., Somerville. 8pm/18+/$15. oncesomerville.com

 


SAT 4.23

New England Cannabis Convention @ Hynes Convention Center

NECANN is the largest convention in New England dedicated solely to the cannabis industry. Now with over 100 vendors and four tracks of speaker panels each day, there’s truly something for everyone interested in the fastest growing industry in the country. Saturday is day one of the two-day convention and includes an open track of speakers and panels for the basic entry price plus three tracks of business, investment, and career focused topics with the BIC-level entry pass. Learn about marijuana as medicine as well as advocacy, or upgrade to see live demos and learn from leaders in the cannabusiness. Tickets on sale online and at the door.

Hynes Convention Center. 900 Boylston St., Boston. 11am-6pm/18+/$15+. necann.com

 


SUN 4.24

New England Cannabis Convention @ Hynes Convention Center

Day two of NECANN promises to be just as exciting and jam-packed with four new tracks of speakers and panels all day. Hundreds of vendors will be available as well, selling everything from education and growing supplies to industry products and supplies for medical grows and beyond. Home-grow panels and experts will be the focus on Sunday, but the business, investment, and career tracks will provide additional knowledge and expertise that you don’t want to miss. While the focus is currently on education and medicinal use, with Massachusetts preparing to vote on full legalization this November you’ll want to be one step ahead of the changes, and this is the place to be if you want to learn how.

Hynes Convention Center. 900 Boylston St., Boston. 11am-6pm/18+/$15+. necann.com

 


MON 4.25

Phillippe Apeloig @ Le Laboratoire Cambridge

If you’re like us, you love graphic design. In 2006, Dig Boston actually won the overall Best Design Award for a Newspaper in New England, so it’s not just lip service. Add to that over two dozen design awards from all over the country, and it’s clear to see why this little rag is pumped to help promote this incredible French graphic designer, Philippe Apeloig, in this unique discussion titled The Substance of Letters. His use of experimental typography in major marketing campaigns as well as cultural client posters makes this a visual tornado for the serif and sans aficionado. Space is limited, and you must RSVP at programs@lelabcambridge.com.

Le Laboratoire. 650 E. Kendall St., Cambridge. 6:30pm/all ages/FREE. lelabcambridge.com

 


TUE 4.26

Figure Drawing @ Artisan’s Asylum

Who among us hasn’t fancied a high-minded career in fine art? From the first scribble on a chalkboard to the profanity-laced doodles on the back of a school notebook, no matter how lacking in artistic skill, we all draw. Figure Drawing Tuesdays at Artisan’s Asylum offers everyone the chance to elevate your skill by sketching under their tutelage and with live nude models. Wait, what? That’s right, this isn’t paint night with the ladies down at the wine bar. This is a full on artistic experience with proper guidance like the masters have done for centuries. Classes are limited and walk-ins are welcome, but it’s highly recommended that you register in advance and read the FAQ for this class.

Artisan’s Asylum. 10 Tyler St. Somerville. 6:30pm/18+/$21.39. artisansasylum.com
